Read It Forward Book
Calvert's First Read It Forward Campaign

March 23- May 20, 2011

2nd through 4th grade students will be reading The Buddy Files: The Case of the Lost Boy by Dori Hillestad Butler. This book is also one of the 2011-2012 Bluebonnet books, so the students are getting ahead for next year. Here's what the students need to do:
  1. Read the book.
  2. Sign and date the inside front cover.
  3. Come see Mrs. Hensley in the LMC for a prize and a puppy paw.
  4. Pass the book along to a friend.
Please encourage your students to participate. Teachers can read the books too! Mr. Coronado, Ms. Ragsdale and I have already read it! Let's see how many of our students can read The Case of the Lost Boy by May.
